For perked aircraft, yes, the mossie is better. And you are right about the A20, the only area the stuka is better in is accuracy.

Still, its hard to beat the enjoyment you get from hitting a CV with a stuka, and seeing you've killed several uppers while you're motoring away at 450mph.

It's obvious you've never flown a Stuka if you think you can motor away at "450mph" in it.

Lol, diving in from 10-15k at full throttle? I'm pretty damn sure I can get the stuka up to 450 at least. I've broken 500 before, and was at 350 when I got out of auto ack range.

It can be done but it rips all three landing gear off the plane.

I'm well aware of that. I had to belly land my stuka on a nearby CV. taking 25% fuel comes at a cost.

Is it even possible to get to 15K with 25% fuel? I'm not gonna test that one right now...

Yes.  Ju 87 has good range on 25% fuel.
